So, if Centrair is still in business, who is this "SN Centrair" who seems to be acting on their behalf?

I reached out to SN Centrair a short while ago since I was interested in importing a Marianne, a two-seat trainer. The original Centrair made the same blunder in their US certification process and limited the life-time to 3,000 hours of flight time. After waiting for a response for around two weeks, I got an e-mail stating that there were no attempts to change that and the main focus of SN Centrair now is making parts for Airbus. Sadly, I had to drop my plans despite the fact that the Marianne seems to be an attractive trainer compared to others, far more expensive ones, made in the Fatherland..
